(This is a desk workers training)
The training will be held in the MITOC office (W20-461), Wednesday Oct 15, 6-7pm.
Please bring a laptop or tablet which we will use for practice.
Becoming a desk worker is a GREAT way to get more involved in MITOC! You get to answer difficult questions about checks, understand the many types of skis and how we can rent them, put bandaids in first aid kits, and more! You can also earn (fake) $$ to spend on the SICK NEW WATER BOTTLES COMING NOV 2025 (glow in the dark beaver!!!???), the upcoming WFA training, and staying in a cozy cabin this winter.
Potential winter leaders are esp encouraged to sign up to make office hours easier for us this winter school :))
Please note you must have attended at least one MITOC trip to be eligible for desk worker training.
